Old MPG recordings cause this error opening Video encoding and Cut.

Could you upload this mpg here to test?

@ ProWo

I'll send you a PM with a link to the old MPG recording.

Thx, it should be fixed now.
Please update.
Retest your input-mp4 too.

As always, thanks again for the latest adjustments!

I can confirm that the problems with some file types have been fixed and everything is working normally again.

Just one more little thing:
DNxHD hide Encode, To batch, Sample and All streams for small resolutions like the old MPG recording. But DNxHR does not.

This is because the DNxHD encoder does not work unless very specific conditions are met.
The DNxHD encoder, on the other hand, is not as sensitive; although it is optimized for high resolutions, bitrates, and pixel rates, it also works without them.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing!


I think it would make sense to add a preview button to the "Burn-in subtitle" window to test the settings. Currently, all settings are reset when you reopen the window because something wasn't right.

It could look like this:

Subtitle mux cannot be previewed with ffmpeg.

@davidt1

Your Alder Lake does not support AV1 hardware encoding!

Thanks for the info.

ProWo,

Can you put the focus on the OK buttons in messageboxes again? You did it once, but now they don't have the focus anymore, at least the ones I am using. Thanks.

I noticed that, in general, not all implemented code changes stick across releases.

Please pay more attention to version control ..

Thanks

Yes, of course!
This is about Video Encoding, Burn-in Subtitle. There you can check and display it.

Feature Request
-----------------
Is it possible to add support for TMCD streams?
Currently Clever does not display them, on main page, or in Mux.

There is varying support for TMCD in tools & containers.

It is not difficult to remove a TMCD stream, but for many files, I had to modify
the simple Mux batch ffmpeg command to do it, in bulk.
Note: Regular Mux doesn't have a batch function.

Kindly consider it. Thanks

What type of support you mean?
Display, extract, write, mux...?

You'll have to explain that in more detail...

So far, I have only integrated the OK button focus in the general message box, and it works there as before.
I will do the same for all the others.

[videoAI]

It is up to you ..

For me, I only need to see it in Mux/Simple Mux and remove it in batch. [-write_tmcd 0]
So I guess Display, Mux .. will suffice.

Or optionally, a check mark for no tmcd during export/batch/mux (both R/S)

add support for TMCD streams?

What type of support you mean?
Display, extract, write, mux...?

[videoAI]

Sure ..

one of many changes done before but then lost ..

Earlier post - minor formatting change


[Attachment 89696 - Click to enlarge]

Compare with latest clever version [Lapse reverted back to lapse, Subtitle is now subtitle]
formatting changes, default settings, check boxes [checked/unchecked] are not always retained
between versions.

Hope this helps ..

Note: one user a while back complained the every version of Clever fixes an issue but introduces
a second one .. another indication of version control and regression testing issues.

Please allow the ability to set defaults for these 3 settings:

1- After Mux Action [Dropdown Selection]
2- Title [Checkmark]
3- Container [Type]

and have them [always] remembered.

I think one of them should be 'DNxHR'.

This is because the DNxHD encoder does not work unless very specific conditions are met.

Hi, I'm getting a lot of use from your clever GUI and thank you. I have 2 questions.

1 Is there a way to see what the command line is that's generated in the GUI? I'm still pretty new to FFMpeg and curious.

2 The thing I do most with your GUI is extracting the audio from .mkv/.mp4 files and encoding to FLAC with 0 compression and 24 bit. Is there a command line I could use as a bat file to just do that one thing? Or maybe allow choice of track id? I'm plowing my way through the FFMpeg documentation, but it's a lot.

Thanks for any response to this.

Got it. Thanks!

I'm slowly figuring out ffmpeg batch conversions...

[Deathstalker]

I'm testing this tool for the first time, so apologies if this has been mentioned before.
I noticed that replacing -hwaccel nvdec with -hwaccel cuda -hwaccel_output_format cuda in Clever’s FFmpeg command increases performance on my system: 19× vs. 12× speed and 5% vs. 25–35% CPU usage when transcoding HEVC-to-HEVC. The output files are identical in size and metadata (per MediaInfo).
It would be great if Clever offered a CUDA decoding option.

Feature Request
------------------

I am sure this requested feature will be very useful and very popular.
How about adding a 'copy to clipboard' when right-clicking on action
column in batch tasks grid.

This should allow the ffmpeg command, previewed via hover, to be
copied to the clipboard.

P.s. What will make this new feature even more useful is adding the
output file name to the generated ffmpeg command as well.

Adding this feature will let Clever compete with many other ffmpeg
GUIs who have already added similar features [to copy, or input
ffmpeg commands]

Kindly consider adding

Thanks
